Just out of curiosity, do you have the Intel 3945 Pro 802.11 card?

If so, you might look into downloading the updated driver from Intel.

http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/

Try that and see if it solves your problem.  My guess would be that
networkmanager is losing connection with the driver somehow.
